Nothing would be niore natural than comment by the paper)* that are published'in this comi ty. We speak only for ourselves when we say that we will for the present withhold all com ment. One of the clearest facts of today ,is that newspapers often exercise more or less in fluence in shaping the decisions of juries. Very often men are acquitted or convicted before their cases are called in courts. • We know nothing of the facts in the case except the reports as printed in the newspapers. The real facts w ill later come before the men who will take the oath of jurbrs. This paper goes into nearly two thousand homes, from some of which will prob ably come some members of the jury before which this case will come. We do not flatter our selves that we would be able to change tho opinions of any one - But we do not think it either just or wise to express any comment -that possibly might assist any possible juror in forming an opinion until he heirs the evidence given under oath. . man who requires all of a high salary) for living' expenses. Butter; eggs, beef, potatoes, and and in fact all that the farmer diad to sell brought him as much proportionately last fall as his cotton crop.. .. FoodtnfTs were really superior to cotton as a money crop last year. This year ^the same rea- ~sOTis r prevail.—F<^dstall’s will be higher; jn.,prjce>^But""there is this added reason, War con ditions make our lives extreme ly artificial. Every channel of trade and commerce is affected by War conditions. The 1 farmer can count only oil the single fact that - the world must have foot!. It will get along without many other things. One - of the unsettling factors is railroad transportation. There Vj;as in winter; a shortage of salt, of sugar, of coal, and of many other vital necessities. When these shortages were reduced to the last analysis they seem to be shortages of transportation. There wore abundant supplies of those articles, but they were badly distributed. The railroads were broke*' down, because they were not able to meet the demands made on them. We have not seen the worst of it. For as the year wears on we will see the railroads fail in moro ways than one. Assistant Sec retary Ousley of the Department of Agriculture warns the South ern farmers that unless he raises enough foodstuffs this year for his own consumption, and the consumption within his county and state, they will got without. Annually we import into South Carolina million* of dollars of foodstuffs. We haven’t 'fed ourselves. If we fail to do so this year the railroads may not be able to brifig it to us from other sources. If they should haul it here, this must lie done at'the expense of transportation needed to w in the w*ar. But the most powerful reason for abstaining from plunging in cotton is the plain hard truth that the—world will not during this year raise enough foodstuffs for its needs. To keep away famine every available acre is being cultivated. The farmer who doesn’t raise enough to meet home needs may find himself with money in his pocket, hut with no food on the market to spend it for. We should Vai.se more meat and bread than ever before. It will be a big gamble to depend on the corn belt for ifrCse things.

The farmers have long felt that their in comes were 90 small and their expanses* so* great that-fan-nii»g was the poorest business on earth, it .was no uncommon thing for young men to leaye the farms and go to the city to make a living. But more, than money making every calling i? a necessary part of the life of the public. Each contributes to the welfare of the" whole. This is especially true of tile farm* r.

On the use of good common serfse in our 1918 farm and- garden opeititions de pends prosperity or our “gotig broke.” Even at present nigh prices no one J can plant all or nearly all cotton, buy food and grain at present prices from supply merchant on credit and make money. Food and graid is higher in proportion than are present cotton prices. It’s*, a time above all others to play safe; to produce all possible food, grain and forage supplies on your own acres! to cut down the store bill. A good piece ol garden ground, rightly planted, rightly tended and kept planted the tear round, can be made to pay nearly half your living. It will save you more money than you made on the best three acres of cotton you ever grew! Hastings’ 1918 Seed Book tells all about the right kind of a money sav ing garden and the vegetables to put in it. It tells abouLthe farm crops as well and shows you the clear road to real and regular farm prosperity. It’s end for it today to H. G. The Barnwell Banking Company BARNWELL, S. C. J. E.

'"Up to the present It has been very hard to get our people to consider the home garden seriously,as a real sub stantial factor in food production with the fconpequent saving of money that went for food supplies at the store.
